SAUTéED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH FRESH CORN, SHALLOTS AND CREAM

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Cut the kernels from the ears of corn. There should be about 1 cup. Set aside.
• Heat butter in a skillet large enough to hold the breasts in one layer. Add the chicken, cook 3 minutes and turn. Cover and cook 5 minutes longer.
• Transfer chicken pieces to a hot serving dish. To the skillet add shallots and cook briefly. Add wine and bring to the boil. Add the corn and stir in mustard.
• Add cream and stir to blend. Bring to the boil and add the chervil or parsley. Pour and scrape the sauce over the chicken pieces and serve.

SAUTEED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH FRESH HERBS AND GINGER

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and place them skin side down in the pan. Cook, turning once, until firm to the touch, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate.
• Add the lime juice to the skillet, and scrape up any browned bits that cling to the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken broth and ginger, and bring to a boil. Off the heat, add the basil and mint to the pan and swirl the pan to combine.
• Divide the chicken between the 2 plates and spoon the herb sauce over the chicken. Serve.

CHICKEN WITH ROASTED SHALLOTS, TOMATOES AND WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a shallow roasting pan with cooking spray.
• Season both sides of chicken with salt and black pepper and place in prepared pan. Arrange shallots and tomatoes around chicken (or on a second baking sheet that's been coated with nonstick cooking spray). Toss with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Roast 30 minutes, until chicken is golden brown and cooked through and vegetables are tender.
• Set aside 2 chicken breast halves for primavera.
• In a large skillet, combine beans, roasted shallots and tomatoes, 1 cup of the broth, thyme, and oregano. Set pan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Add chicken and simmer 1 minute to heat through. Remove from heat and top with parsley.

CHICKEN WITH SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and sprinkle them generously on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, until it begins to smoke. Place the chicken breasts, skin side down, in the skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes without moving, until golden brown.
• Using tongs, turn the chicken breasts skin side up, place the skillet in the oven, and roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saute pan, combine the white wine, lemon juice, and shallots and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until only 2 tablespoons of liquid remain in the pan. If it reduces too much, add an extra splash of white wine or water. Add the cream, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and bring to a full boil. Remove from the heat, add the diced butter, and swirl the pan until the butter is incorporated. Don't reheat or the sauce will "break"! Sprinkle with salt and serve the chicken hot with the sauce spooned over it.

SAUTéED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SHALLOTS AND GARLIC

• Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Pre-heat your saute pan (frying pan) until drops of water quickly evaporate. This means the pan is at least 212°F.

• Sauté the breasts until they are lightly browned on one side, approximately 3 minutes.
• Turn breasts over and sauté for another 3 minutes, again until lightly browned. (At this point the meat should be firm to the touch.).
• Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate, cover with aluminum foil, and keep warm in the oven or toaster oven set at low.
• Remove the pan from the head source, and add half of the wine to deglaze the pan, stirring to dissolve the flavorful brown particles stuck to the pan.
• Return pan to the stove and add the shallots and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, making sure the garlic doesn't burn. (It makes the dish bitter if it does).
• Add the remaining wine and reduce (boil) until only a trace of wine is left in the pan.
• Add the chicken stock and reduce to half the original amount, approximately 6-7 minutes.
• Add the cream, and again reduce until the sauce is thick enough to coat a spoon.
• Spoon sauce over cutlets and serve.
